The only small downside was that the restaurant was quite busy that day, so service was a bit slow at times. That said, the food quality absolutely made up for the wait.
We will definitely be back for the food.
If you want it shorter, more casual, or more food-specific (dim sum only / dinner dishes), I can tweak it.
Word of warning: None of the actual dishes look as artful as the pictures in the menu, but they’re still good for the most part.
We started with the Crispy Barbecued Quail, which was roasted to perfection with plenty of jiu yim (spiced salt) for dipping. The Yin Yang Fish, which sadly was not arranged yin yang-style a la the menu photo, was still scrumptious, featuring melt-in-your-mouth poached fish pieces across from melt-in-your-mouth fried fish pieces, with some greens in between playing referee.
The Half Crispy Fried Chicken in Garlic Flavor was a bit dry, but the skin was perfect. And our Ginger Scallion Lobster over Vermicelli was everything we were craving that night, with plenty of carbs to soak up all that flavor.
And that aforementioned complimentary dessert soup? It was red bean soup with sago pearls, a combination of two of my favorite Chinese dessert soups. Winner winner, autumn dinner.
We ordered their crab fried rice and a couple of dim sum dishes. Servers were also bringing around plates of freshly choy sum in case any table wanted to add some vegetables to their table (not us!). The crab fried rice was pretty good and the fried rice was had a light seafood flavor though I wish it was a tiny bit saltier. Table favorites were bacon wrapped fried shrimp balls, fried fish balls and the tofu skin wrapped with vegetables. The har gow was quite large and seemed to be freshly made. For some reason, we also ordered chicken feet and it didn’t come out till we were basically ready to leave (definitely go in knowing what you want to order).
Next time, I think I’ll try one of their lobster dishes or maybe one of the dishes that require pre-orders.
While the prices are on the higher side, you’re guaranteed some of the most authentic Hong Kong favorites. Their attention to detail is insane, like even the radish in the beef brisket pot was perfectly cut into uniform pieces!
For the best value, we usually go for their banquet dishes over dim sum.
*Ping’s Signature Roast Pork 炭燒叉燒皇 $26.95 **
Sure, you can get char siu for cheaper elsewhere. But the quality here is on another level. It was almost comparable to my favorite char siu from michelin star restaurant in HK. It melted in my mouth, with the perfect lean-to-fat ratio. The glaze was done just right,, not overly sweet or salty.
*Soft & Crunchy Crab Meat Fried Rice 珠翠雙昇炒飯 $26.95 **
Ngl this might be the best fried rice in my life. I’ve never had “crispy” fried rice like this. Each grain was glistening on the plate. The portion was generous and packed with crab meat.
*Shrimp Lava Toast 流心蝦多士 $9.95/pc *
I dm-ed them to reserve two days ahead. It was a deep-fried toast, topped with shrimp paste and a whole jumbo shrimp. When I had a bite, the half-melted cheddar cheese oozed out. Super meaty, crunchy, and satisfying.
*Lobster E-fu Noodle 石燒龍蝦伊麵 $55
No canto banquet is complete without lobster yi mein. We could barely see the noodles under all that lobster meat. The gravy was quite thick, but it clung to every strand nicely.
*Beef Brisket in Broth 清湯牛坑腩 $49.99
It was loaded with beef brisket, and you could tell they used a premium cut just from the tender texture.
Just a note that their servers are really friendly and patient. That’s also a reason that keeps us coming back.
The lobster was delicious! And the noodles!!! They seemed very fresh, maybe house made?, soooo delicious, and li handmade fresh Italian pasta we haven’t really experienced in NYC Chinese cuisine. We ate every bit of the lobster and savored the noodles too. The clams were fresh, very tasty, arrived beautifully displayed and the tofu!!! crispy outside and silk soft on the inside and hot! tofu so silky, we had a hard time grasping with our chopsticks
We loved every bite of dinner and all of the ambience around and seeing the dim sum served around us! The only aspect of Pings that we didn’t love were the wine menu prices. We have enjoyed several selections on their list at various price points – like the Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc – retails for $12-15 and at restaurants for $25-35. Pings price was $48 and if we brought our own bottle there was a corkage fee (not all Chinatown restaurants charge a corkage fee although many other NYC restaurants do.) We know wine is marked up but knowing that particular wine price point allowed us to know their mark up which left us feeling like we didn’t want a $12 wine but paying $50 with our dinner… This isn’t really a dealbreaker for us – we loved our dinner and would definitely go back – but we didn’t have wine with dinner and we have had good food nearby with similar wine at better prices.
If you want a nice Chinatown dinner, with high quality food and service – Pings is a great place for dinner ❤️ without wine.
The food was just okay. Vegetarians might want to skip this place since the options are quite limited. Having visited Chinatown many times, I found the dim sums to be overpriced for the average quality.
Setting is a bit loud which might be to be expected in Chinatown. Service was sharp and attentive. Overall good experience!
